To use either VFOS_IBM or VFOS_BIO, just make sure that Opus!Comm5.00 or higher is installed first, then run the program you wish touse. I understand that at the current time X00 does not support thehook necessary to use a VFOSSIL (Ray is working on it now that heknows about the problem). If you wish to remove the VFOSSIL, useVFOS_DEL. Make sure you remove the VFOSSIL before removing Opus!Comm(if you do things like that). Otherwise you will fragment memory.

If you can use VFOS_IBM (using a video adapter that does not cause"snow"), you should use it. It is VERY fast. If not, try using VFOS_BIO which should work with multi-taskers as well as cga's thathave "snow" problems.

VFOS_IBM will automagically detect the presence of a monochromeadapter and write directly to the proper memory locations.

Neither program is a complete VFOSSIL. There are several functionsmissing out of each version, or routines that function incorrectly atthis point. The functions that are used by BinkleyTerm are known tobe working in both versions. Other functions will be fixed and/oradded to make a complete VFOSSIL as time permits (right now I am toobusy with work and trying to get BinkleyTerm ready for release).

I think this version of VFOS_IBM will find the "shadow buffer" underDESQview. It might even work under DoubleDOS, but I'm not sure. Letme know what happens.
